jay shree krishna!
other than shrigoverdhannathji (shrinathji) & navneetpriyaji(both at nathdwara),who are the main swarups,the 7 'nidhi' swarups are in the following order:
1)mathuradhishji at kota
2)vitthalnathji at nathdwara
3)dwarkadhishji at kankroli
4)gokulnathji at gokul
5)gokulchandramaji at kamvan
6)madanmohanji at kamvan
7)balkrishnalalji at surat
the seva of the seven nidhi swarups was give by shri vitthalnathji (gusainji) to his 7 sons:
girdhar,govind,balkrishna,gokulnath,raghunath, yadunath & ghanshyam in the same order.
gusainji kept the seva of shrinathji & navneetpriyaji with himself,& after he entered into leela,their seva was given to his eldest son,girdharji.

Jai Shree Krushna,
Their is a slight mistake in answer provided by Shree Navneetbhai. Madanmohanji is saptam(seventh)nidhi swaroop and not sixth as this swaroop was given to Shree Ghanshyamji, who is the seventh and the youngest son of Shree Gusainji.

jai shree krishna
i am not sure if i am right or not.......but i can highlight on shri kalyanraiji....i dont know the name of this place but at that place people were doing poojan of kalyanidevi....which is shree kalyanraiji.
later when shree mahaprabhuji visited that place he identified that swaroop as shree thakorji's, and told the people there that it is not a devi its thakorji swaroop......because when they used to do the shrungar they used to do it from a faminine point of view as regards to devi......so since when mahaprabhuji told them its shree kalyanraiji they changed the seva prakar what shree mahaprabhuji told them to do......even wht i heard in one of the vachamruts vallabh kul said that even when u do darshan of this swaroop as it was praised as devi so even when u look and do the darshan presently u would see it looks more like a devi specially the netra( eyes).
please correct me if i am wrong

Jai Jai ShriGokulesh
For Chaturthbhuj dhari Swamini sangiji ShriGokulnathji's pooja was previously been done by father in law of shrimahaprabhuji. And after marriage shrimahaprabhuji carried this swaroop with aapshri and kept this swaroop in gruh seva.

Jai Shree Krishna
Here are the Pragatya vartha of the various swaroopas....
Shree Kalyanraiji
Shree Kalyanraiji is the swaroopa that does Kalyan of Bhakthas through Raasleela. At a little distance from Prayaag, there is/was a town named Kada, and in a pond there, a bhagwad swaroopa was obtained. However, this swaroopa was thought to be that of a devi, and was worshipped as Kalyanidevi, in a temple located close to the pond. Once Shree Mahaprabhuji visited the place. Shree Thakorji himself requested Shree Vallabh and highlighted the fact that he was mistakenly being worshipped as devi by teh people there. Shree Mahaprabhuji, immeidately, tore the saree into two parts, with one he adorned the deity with dhoti and of the other part aapshree made a paag abd adorned it on Shree Mastak. Shree Thakorji was named as Shree Kalyanraiji. The swaroopa, later from Shree Gusainji place was shifted to Shree Yadunathjis house at Baroda, and is till date birajmman there.
Shree Gokulnathji
This adbhut swaroopa as rightly pointed out by Gopal bhai belonged to Shree Mahaprabhujis Sasural. And is the same swaroopa that Shrunk its form in order to be able to fit into the Jhaapiji.
Shree Balkrishnaji
Shree Balkrishnaji too is a very adbhoot swaroopa. Can anyone highlight more on this swaroopa ????

Jai Shree Krishna
Shree Balkrishnaji
Shree Balkrishnaji has a Fair Mukharvind, Dark Shree Ang, Butter ball in his left hand, the head-dress of a Topi and is the form of a Crawling Child.
The Swaroopa leela of this devine form is that of Pootna stan paan (breast feeding by Pootna), highlighted in the Seventh chapter of the dashmaskand, the leela of a three month old lord, doing shaktbhanjan leela, tranvart vadh, Bhutika bhakshan leela etc.
This devine form of Shree BaalKrishnaji was obtained by Shree Mahaprabhuji while bathing in Shree Yamunaji, when the lord held on to Shree Vallabhs Janeu and presented his devine fomr to the Acharya.
Shree BalKrishnaji was first offered by Shree Gusainji to his Sixth son, Shree Yadunathji. However, his desire for a Bigger swaroopa, led to the lord being present along with Shree Dwarakadheeshji. At Present Shree Balkrishnaji is biraajmaan in Surat, under the care of the lineage of Nitya leelasth Goswami Shree Varjratanlalji Maharajshree.
Shree Vitthalnathji
This devine form belonging to the dvitiya ghar has been very well explained at the following link....

Jai Shree Krishna
No, Dont think so. Shree Balkrishnajis swaroopa was actually the swaroopa with which Shree Gusainji used to play with. The swaroopa is one of Nidhi swaroopas which has been always been worshipped by Vallabhkul gobalaks only.
Regarding the difference between the swaroops of Shree Balkrishnaji and Shree Navneetpriyaji....
Shree Navneetpriyajis swaroopa is said to have Makhan(navneet)in his right hand and on the left hand that he rests on the floor, there is ladduva. However, Shree Balkrishnajis swaroopa is said to have laddu in the right hand and the left hand rests directly on the floor.
Now let us see who answers regarding Shree Mukundrayaji ????
